If you're serious about this I'll gladly take those sides and use them in my own T-bird project.

Although I'm quite certain you wouldn't be that stupid. 8)

Cloud Gate is a public sculpture by British artist Anish Kapoor in Millennium Park within the Loop community area of Chicago in Cook County, Illinois, United States. It is the centerpiece of the AT&T Plaza (formerly Ameritech Plaza and SBC Plaza) and is located above Park Grill and adjacent to the Chase Promenade. The sculpture was constructed from 2004-2006, with a temporary unveiling in the summer of 2004. Nicknamed "The Bean" because of its legume-like shape, Cloud Gate's exterior consists of 168 highly polished stainless steel plates. It is 33 feet by 66 feet by 42 feet (10 m × 20 m × 13 m) tall, and weighs 110 short tons (99.8 t/98.2 long tons).
Inspired by liquid mercury, it is one of the most popular sculptures in the United States. The sculpture's highly polished exterior reflects and transforms the city's skyline. Visitors are invited to walk around and under Cloud Gate's 12-foot (3.7 m)-high arch. On the underside of the sculpture is the "omphalos", a concave chamber upwards and dramatically warps and multiplies reflections.
